Was offered upgrade Dubai to Melbourne - great price excellent service
Would you mind if I ask how much? I used upgrade few times - BA offer me upgrade full way from LHR to SYD from business to first for mere $300. Yes three hundreds. Also I upgraded ticket for my son from HEL to BKK by AY from economy to J for $500. And I was offered "upgrade" by Qatar from DOH to ALA for $650, it is 4hr flight on A320 with recliner "business" and mind you that "upgrade" not entitled pax to go to lounge. Both upgrades by BA and FinnAir was true upgrade like having real First (Business) ticket while Qatar "upgrade" was close to difference in fare. Hence my curiosity - how much was upgrade from Emirates? I would not put much money on ME3 generosity.

Sorry just saw you question the upgrade was $1,537 - Dub to Melb.
The trip started in Athens and at that stage was economy - unfortunately flight was delayed due to weather and missed Dubai connection to Melbourne.
Upon arriving at Dubai I was chauffeured driven to the Marriott stayed there for 5 hours - had own room and breakfast .
I was then chauffeured back to Dubai Airport and had access to lounge while waiting for plane to Melbourne.
No extra charges and got the business class seat. Certainly flying Emirates again!
